Take My Time / Sheena Easton lyrics

(Cry, baby)
I heard a cry at night, I heard him slam the door
There was a screech of tyres, but he'll be back for sure
Now through my apartment wall, I can hear her sweet tears startin' to fall
Chorus:
So cry, baby, wash out your heart
Hang your life out to dry and make a new start
Then came a telephone ring, it was a logical thing
I left it for a while, I let her hang up and redial

He wakes and says hello, turns on the breakfast show
She fixes coffee while he takes a shower
Hey that was great, he said, I wish we could stay in bed
But I got to be at work in less than an hour
She manages a smile as he walks out the door
She's a modern girl who's been though this movie before

Chorus:
She don't build her world 'round no single man

I wake up every mornin', I stumble out of bed

Stretchin' and yawnin', another day ahead

It seems to last forever, and time goes slowly by

Till babe and me's together, then it starts to fly

'Cause the moment that he's with me, time can take a flight

The moment that he's with me, everything's alright

Night time is the right time, we make love

Then it's his and my time, we take off

My sugar walls
my sugar walls.
Where I come from there's a place called heaven

That's the place where all the good children go.
The houses are of silver
the streets of gold.
But there's more where you come from - my sugar walls.
My sugar walls
my sugar walls.
Blood races to your private spots

let's me know there's a fire.
You can't fight passion when passion is hot

This Man's a child

this man is old

sometimes he's mild

sometimes he's bold
This man I love sometimes in spite

of wishing he'd stick to his guns or

abandon the fight

But when he shines, oh when he shines

yes, when he shines, he shines so bright

Sometimes a tramp, sometimes a dude

He changes colors just like a chameleon

can't find the mood
